Organic Bean Seed

These varieties are extremely productive. You may expect about 15 pounds of organic heirloom beans from a narrow single 30' row.

Avoid planting in soil that stays wet. Heirloom bean disease thrive in wet conditions, and the roots may not get enough oxygen.

Organic heirloom beans like soil that is slightly acid, about 6.5. This can be achieved by adding mulched pine needles, peat moss or sulfur.

Try wide row growing for bush beans. Make your heirloom bean rows three across instead of just one. Three wide is perfect because most people can reach across that width. You can grow 3 times the amount of organic heirloom beans in the same space, you reduce the amount of area for weeds, and you'll save on water.

Tasty snow white 6", dense, heavy, heads are tucked away amongst silvery-green leaves. A self blanching variety as the leaves curl around heads protecting them from sun. Excellent for home or market use. Well adapted to short season areas.
